Reactions of 2-chloro- and 2-methyl-6,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,e]thiepin-11-ol with 2-bromoethanol in the presence of sulfuric acid in boiling benzene afforded the 2-bromoethyl ethers VIa and VIb which were transformed by substitution reactions with 1-methylpiperazine, 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-piperazine and 1-(ethoxycarbonyl)piperazine to the title compounds. Alkaline hydrolysis of the carbamate IVa gave the secondary amine IIIa. Treatment of the bromo ether VIa with 4-(4-chloro-3-trifluoromethylphenyl)piperidin-4-ol resulted in the piperidine derivative VIIa. Substitution reaction of 11-chloro-6,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,e]thiepin with 1-(2-methoxyethyl)piperazine and 1-(2-ethoxyethyl)piperazine led to the amino ethers VIII and IX. Reaction of 11-chloro-11-phenyl-6,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,e]thiepin with 2-dimethylaminoethanethiol in dimethylformamide at 90°C gave a mixture of two isomeric bases which was separated to the expected sulfide X and the base XII, resulting evidently after the rearrangement of the primary carbocation. A similar reaction of 3-dimethylaminopropanethiol afforded a single product of structure XI. Out of the compounds prepared, the ether VIII was found most interesting: it is little toxic and has significant antireserpine activity in two tests (is considered a potential antidepressant). The ethers Iab, Iab, IIIa and VIIa did not reveal the expected neuroleptic activity.

A reaction of 8-chloro-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f]thiepin-10-ol with 2-bromoethanol and boron trifluoride etherate produced the 2-bromoethyl ether II which was subjected to substitution reactions with 1-methylpiperazine, 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine, 1-(3-hydroxypropyl)piperazine and 1-ethoxycarbonylpiperazine to give the title piperazinoethoxy compounds IV-VII. Alkaline hydrolysis of the carbamate VII afforded the monosubstituted piperazine VIII. Compounds IV-VI are neuroleptics with an interesting activity profile: they are little toxic, have strong central depressant and antimorphine activity, mild cataleptic effects, they intensively increase the dopamine metabolism in the rat brain striatum and are almost free of the peripheral adrenolytic efficacy.

Substitution reactions of (E)-11-(3-bromopropylidene)-6,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,e]thiepin (VIIIa) and its 2-chloro derivative VIIIb with 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine gave the title compounds IIIa and IIIb which afforded by treatment with acetic anhydride, decanoyl chloride and 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoyl chloride the esters IVab-VIab. Reduction of the olefinic compounds IIIa and IIIb with hydrolytic acid resulted in the saturated amines IXa and IXb. The piperazine derivativeX was obtained by a substitution reaction of 2,11-dichloro-6,11-dihydrobenzo[b,e]thiepin with 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine. The amino alcohols IIIa and IIIb, as well as their acetates and 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoates, are almost devoid of the CNS effects. The decanates Va and Vb have not the properties of the depot antipsychotics (neither antidepressants, nor neuroleptics). The saturated amino alcohol IXa showed some antihistamine, spasmolytic and adrenolytic effects.

The sulfuric acid catalyzed acylation of 2-methyl-5-nitroisocarbostyril with carboxylic acid anhydrides gave the corresponding 4-acylated derivatives 3, which underwent reductive cyclization to 2-substituted derivatives of 4-methyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydropyrrolo[4.3.2.de]isoquinolin-5-one (4). Alkaline hydrolysis of the six-membered lactam in 4 was accompanied by a retro-Mannich reaction to produce 2-substituted indole-4-carboxylic acids in about 40 % overall yield from 3.

The reaction of 2,3-dichlorothiophenol with 2-iodobenzoic acid gave 2-(2,3-dichlorophenylthio)benzoic acid (V) which was transformed in four steps to the homological acid IX. Cyclization resulted in 6,7-dichlorodibenzo[b,f]thiepin-10(11H)-one (X) which was converted via the alcohol XI to the trichloro compound XII. Substitution reactions of XII with 1-methylpiperazine and 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine afforded the title compound I and its hydroxyethyl analogue II. Reaction of the ketone X with 1-methylpiperazine and titanium tetrachloride gave the enamine III. Compounds I-III exhibit mild central depressant and relatively strong cataleptic activity.

Substitution reactions of N,N-dimethyl-3-chloro-3-phenylpropylamine with 1-methylpiperazine and a series of analogues afforded 1-(3-dimethylamino-1-phenylpropyl)piperazines I-V. A similar substitution with piperidine resulted in the diamine VIII. Hydrolysis of the carbamate V gave the secondary amine VI which was transformed by alkylation with cyclopropylmethyl bromide to compound VII. 3-Dimethylamino-3-phenylpropanol was treated with thionyl chloride to give N,N-dimethyl-3-chloro-3-phenylpropylamine (IX) which reacted with 1-methylpiperazine and afforded the triamine X. The maleates of the amines prepared exhibited hypotensive effects of short duration (III, IV, VI, VII, X) and moderate antiarrhythmic effects (V-VIII). The phenylpiperazine derivative III showed a significant antiarrhythmic action and a high local anaesthetic activity.

The acid VI, prepared by reaction of potassium salts of (2-iodo-5-methoxyphenyl)acetic acid and 4-(methylthio)thiophenol in the presence of copper, was transformed via intermediates VII-IX to 2-methoxy-8-methylthio-10-piperazino-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f]thiepins X and XI. Their demethylation with boron tribromide afforded 2-hydroxy derivatives of the neuroleptic agents methiothepin and oxyprothepin I and II. 11-Chloro-7-methoxy-2-methylthio-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f]thiepin was subjected to substitution reactions with 1-methylpiperazine and 1-(ethoxycarbonyl)piperazine and gave piperazine derivatives XIII and XIV, out of which the latter gave the secondary amine XV by alkaline hydrolysis. The ethers XIII and XV were also cleaved with boron tribromide and gave 3-hydroxy derivatives of methiothepin (III) and its demethyl derivative IV. The phenols I, II, and IV are potential metabolites of the mentioned neuroleptic agents; compound III, which already was identified as a metabolite, disclosed properties of a strong and cataleptic neuroleptic agent with prolonged duration of the effects. The methoxy compounds X, XI, and XIII are practically devoid of the neuroleptic activity.
